They should add for the younians for like the 8-12 whatevers clues for like the mystery pick or make it so they don't to compete against the older people..... its so unfair to them

That could be abused. Older people willing to give up the gambling games, Neomails, and neoboards will have an unfair advantage. Besides, many of those pics stump the adults too.

...and the youngians lie too. So they'd do the hard ones. This could easily be abused.

Also, wouldn't that be an insult? I know 12 year olds whose intelligience by far exceeds that of an average adult. Oooo they would be riots!!

The problem is, it would be exploited easily (anyone can sign up for a younger account regardless if they are that age range or older.) Games like the Mystery Pic and Lenny Conumdrum are supposed to be challenging, there are plenty of other games that younger players can play.

Speaking of that, why did they ever make the LCs easier? It is supposed to be hard, so not everyone could get it.

Thats why I kind of wish there was a program that could stop that, like some youngians aren't that smart, and young people that get a bizzion trophys and have everything would awfully be suspicious to me unless like thve been on for years

Er...
I have won over 80 Conundrums... and I started playing when I was 8 or 9. Just because someone is intelligent doesn't mean they're cheating.

But I mean good at everything, everything

Forgive the social commentary here, but that's what's wrong with everything today. How about this amazing idea; instead of making things easier if you don't know the answer, wouldn't it be amazing if we left things the way they were, and encouraged *everyone* to try their hardest? What a novel idea.

I think the LC/MP games are fine as it is, if you have trouble figuring out, then thats what exactcally hints in forums like this is for.

I'm pretty sure anyone with tons of trophies is put under TNT's microscope, because it's pretty bizzare.
Sun Mar 13, 2005 12:46 am
There are over 20 trophies that are really easy to get. They are listed in PPT's first 20 trophies guide.
I can see a newbie getting gargantuan high scores on flash games being suspicious ... but only having 25 trophies is nothing big.

Well, I'll be blunt here, but in this world, even in games, if you (referring to everyone in general) are not smart or competent enough you cannot expect to be succesful. That's the way life is, don't expect anyone to make concessions for your weaknesses.
Granted though, many of the LCs and MPs are not easily solvable by younger children, even with reasonable intelligence. But that's what the help topics here (and on the neoboards) are for.

I'm an adult and I'm horrid at the MP!
Age doesn't count so much in some things as in time and a good eye for detail.
